Stuffed Potatoes and Apple bars

This Monday went by quick! Work went well. Tonight, I took Body Pump and had a fabulous workout! The whole moving thing (2 1/2 weeks go!!) is starting to stress me out a bit. I decided to push all my stress into my workout and I think the results were great! I felt awesome after! When I got home, I made some breakfast/dessert treats (recipe below) for Josh and washed the dog. Tonight for dinner, I made stuffed potatoes! I cooked up 2 potatoes (a sweet potato for me and a regular Idaho for Josh) at 425 for 1 hour. I also baked up some chicken. On the stove top, I did the following:

I then topped the potatoes with the above mixture and a little low sodium Provolone cheese. I also topped Josh's with the chicken. The above recipe is an adjusted version of this recipe. The breakfast/treat recipe that I made today was apple bars! I had a lot of apples in our fruit bowl and I saw that a lot of bloggers had gone apple picking this weekend (i.e. Sammie and Bridget) , so I thought it would be perfect. I was inspired by this recipe, but adjusted it quite a bit:

Arnold Select Sandwich Thins?! If I didn't know any better I'd say it was my host-mom's favorite bread from the bakery at Santa Isabel, looks exactly the same! And I hope for you that it tastes just as good :)

Dinner and dessert sounds, looks, (tastes, I will one day when I use the recipes) divine!

I'm drowning in apples after my trip to the orchard, so this recipe is so timely - I hope I can get home from work at a decent time to try to make a vegan version!Oh, I've had the Arnold Select Sandwich Thins in the 100% whole wheat variety, and I love them. Interestingly, I'm not crazy about them toasted, but just regular room-temp as a sandwich is delicious!
